The business was established in 1921 on First Street in downtown Tulsa. The
owner later moved on to open stove hospitals in Dallas and Los Angeles.
Eventually, Richard Stufflebeam's father-in-law, Dan Walters, bought the
business in the early 1950s. The business was relocated to property now owned by
Oklahoma State University-Tulsa. After the university bought out property owned
by homeowners and business owners, the Tulsa Stove Hospital moved to the
Southwest Boulevard location.
